I bet it will come out that this is why he lost his job.

Malkin says (link in a post above) that he resigned "on the recommendation of his colleagues". Now think about this: The semester is almost over. He could resign in a week or so. There is no pressing need to do this now. Also, it seems clear that the religious studies department at KU isn't exactly teeming with faculty who are sympathetic to religion, so they must feel that something very embarassing will come out very soon.

Malkin: I contacted the Lawrence Memorial Hospital for more details on the nature of Mirecki's injuries. Citing HIPAA regulations, a hospital spokeswoman declined to provide any more information. She did state that Mirecki was not hospitalized, as many MSM reports have claimed, but came to the emergency room and was "treated and released."

I should note that I made this point on another thread before Malkin's report.
